pattern cutting<\/a> and stitching.<\/p>\nLevel 1 is open to 16+ who are not in a full-time education and there is a governmental help allowance offered.<\/p>\n
Students who complete level 3 courses can find jobs as Garment Techs in the industry. The training itself takes 18 months and graduates often end up in a job before they have even finished the course. Companies that take part of the apprentice scheme and offer work placements within their companies range from designer brands Ralph & Russo, Saville Row tailors and high street stalwarts like high street brands Tesco\u2019s F+F design studio, M&S, Jigsaw and many others.<\/p>\n
Another challenge the Fashion Enter management faces is getting the word out about their courses to college leavers, who may not be so creative, but would love to work in the industry. Fashion colleges sadly do not do enough to educate students on all the \u201cdesigner\u201d alternative career choices there are post-college. Catching their attention, later on, is harder. But clearly not impossible judging by the lovely spaces allocated to the educational workrooms and the lovely \u201ccommon room\u201d space that opens up to the courtyard.<\/p>\n
As we leave Fashion Enter and bid our lovely host Jenny goodbye, we leave elated and proud to know that something as good as Fashion Enter exists; that this social enterprise is slowly and single-handedly releasing skilled and well trained new blood into the industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
